Peaceful, somewhat shy schooling fish that you should keep
together with other peaceful fishes. The water quality
is very important. The water should be acid and very
soft. The aquarium should be planted well to provide
hiding places, but not too densely because you will never
see the fish at all. Some floating plants are
appreciated as well. You should give them small live food. Small dry food is accepted as well. You should feed them not too early because they get active in the twilight. Breeding is not easy. The water should be extremely soft and rather acid (Ph6). The breeding aquarium should be set up with a spawning grid because they eat their own eggs, and a spawning mop. After spawning the parents should be removed. After 1-3 days the eggs hatch. When the young fishes are swimming free you can raise them with very fine infusoria and dustfood. |
